# AI Server Bottleneck Shifts to Power and Memory Chips

The AI infrastructure boom is reshaping global semiconductor supply chains as Dell's $95 billion server backlog exposes critical component shortages. Power management and NAND storage chips have become the new bottleneck in an industry racing to meet explosive demand.

ON Semiconductor (ON.US) reported its Power Solutions Group (PSG) generated $829 million in Q2 revenue, a 12.54% sequential jump driven by AI server power management chips. Management confirmed 'the current bottleneck is DRAM and NAND' during recent earnings, echoing Dell executives' repeated warnings about memory constraints.

Amkor Technology (AMKR.US) reversed its Q1 decline with 12.66% sequential growth in semiconductor equipment services, reaching $1.898 billion in Q2 revenue. The company's strategic push into Chiplet advanced packaging positions it at the forefront of post-Moore's Law manufacturing, capturing critical AI chip production workflows.

SimoLogic (SIMO.US) saw NAND controller revenue surge 31.83% QoQ to $451 million, marking five consecutive quarters of 20%+ growth. With NAND average selling prices climbing 55% sequentially in Q2 according to Counterpoint, the company stands to benefit from Bank of America's projection of a $1.2 trillion memory market by 2027.

Policy tailwinds intensified as China's advanced manufacturing conference prioritized 'AI + manufacturing' initiatives, while SpaceX's Colossus 2 supercomputer expansion doubles NVIDIA chip requirements this year, creating sustained demand for hardware components.
